TOM GATES: GENIUS IDEAS (MOSTLY)

This book won an award for the best book for children in 2012.
It was also the winner of the Waterstones book prize in 2012.
In my opinion, this book is suitable for all ages.
The main character in this book is Tom Gates.(as you may have guessed.)

Tom goes through a lot of embarrassing phases and unbearable shocks. One of the 'embarrassing phases' was when his dad started a fitness regime, and wore really tight cycling shorts and a vest.
One of the unbearable shocks was when he saw his sister... WITHOUT HER SUNGLASSES! His sister always wears her sunglasses and she NEVER takes them off. But when he saw her without them, it made him so shocked that he was late for school.

He has one shocking sister, an embarrassing mum and an extremely embarrassing dad. His best friend is called Derek, and he plays in a band with Derek and Norman - his other friend. His arch enemy is Marcus and he has to sit next to him in class.

Tom Gates: Genius Ideas is a genius idea.
It is a very funny book and I'm sure you would enjoy reading it, just like I did.
